I have modified the CHI035 power board so that it can be powered by a single car battery (12.8v when fully charged).
I followed the steps stated in the pdf for the mods and the board works fine, however I noticed that the sole capacitor
on the board is getting really hot.
As I need the board to be reliable is there anything I can do to remedy this?
From what little I understand about electronics the capacitor will not last very long if it's overheating.
Can I replace it with a capacitor with different specs and if so which one would be appropriate?
Many thanks
